2017-07-10fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lockSahitya Tummala1-2/+3
__list_lru_walk_one() acquires nlru spin lock (nlru->lock) for longer duration if there are more number of items in the lru list.

2017-07-07dentry name snapshotsAl Viro1-0/+27
take_dentry_name_snapshot() takes a safe snapshot of dentry name; if the name is a short one, it gets copied into caller-supplied structure, otherwise an extra reference to external name is grabbed (those are never modified). In either case the pointer to stable string is stored into the same structure. dentry must be held by the caller of take_dentry_name_snapshot(), but may be freely dropped afterwards - the snapshot will stay until destroyed by release_dentry_name_snapshot(). Intended use: struct name_snapshot s; take_dentry_name_snapshot(&s, dentry); ... access s.name ... release_dentry_name_snapshot(&s); Replaces fsnotify_oldname_...(), gets used in fsnotify to obtain the name to pass down with event.

Update dcache, inode, pid, mountpoint, and mount hash tables to use HASH_ZERO, and remove initialization after allocations.

2017-06-15Hang/soft lockup in d_invalidate with simultaneous callsAl Viro1-6/+4
It's not hard to trigger a bunch of d_invalidate() on the same dentry in parallel. They end up fighting each other - any dentry picked for removal by one will be skipped by the rest and we'll go for the next iteration through the entire subtree, even if everything is being skipped. Morevoer, we immediately go back to scanning the subtree. The only thing we really need is to dissolve all mounts in the subtree and as soon as we've nothing left to do, we can just unhash the dentry and bugger off.

2017-05-03fs: don't set *REFERENCED on single use objectsJosef Bacik1-2/+2
By default we set DCACHE_REFERENCED and I_REFERENCED on any dentry or inode we create. This is problematic as this means that it takes two trips through the LRU for any of these objects to be reclaimed, regardless of their actual lifetime. With enough pressure from these caches we can easily evict our working set from page cache with single use objects. So instead only set *REFERENCED if we've already been added to the LRU list. This means that we've been touched since the first time we were accessed, and so more likely to need to hang out in cache. To illustrate this issue I wrote the following scripts https://github.com/josefbacik/debug-scripts/tree/master/cache-pressure on my test box. It is a single socket 4 core CPU with 16gib of RAM and I tested on an Intel 2tib NVME drive. The cache-pressure.sh script creates a new file system and creates 2 6.5gib files in order to take up 13gib of the 16gib of ram with pagecache. Then it runs a test program that reads these 2 files in a loop, and keeps track of how often it has to read bytes for each loop. On an ideal system with no pressure we should have to read 0 bytes indefinitely. The second thing this script does is start a fs_mark job that creates a ton of 0 length files, putting pressure on the system with slab only allocations. On exit the script prints out how many bytes were read by the read-file program. The results are as follows Without patch: /mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file1: total read during loops 27262988288 /mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file2: total read during loops 27262976000 With patch: /mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file2: total read during loops 18640457728 /mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file1: total read during loops 9565376512 This patch results in a 50% reduction of the amount of pages evicted from our working set.

2017-01-10mnt: Protect the mountpoint hashtable with mount_lockEric W. Biederman1-2/+5
Protecting the mountpoint hashtable with namespace_sem was sufficient until a call to umount_mnt was added to mntput_no_expire. At which point it became possible for multiple calls of put_mountpoint on the same hash chain to happen on the same time. Kristen Johansen <kjlx@templeofstupid.com> reported: > This can cause a panic when simultaneous callers of put_mountpoint > attempt to free the same mountpoint. This occurs because some callers > hold the mount_hash_lock, while others hold the namespace lock. Some > even hold both. > > In this submitter's case, the panic manifested itself as a GP fault in > put_mountpoint() when it called hlist_del() and attempted to dereference > a m_hash.pprev that had been poisioned by another thread. Al Viro observed that the simple fix is to switch from using the namespace_sem to the mount_lock to protect the mountpoint hash table. I have taken Al's suggested patch moved put_mountpoint in pivot_root (instead of taking mount_lock an additional time), and have replaced new_mountpoint with get_mountpoint a function that does the hash table lookup and addition under the mount_lock. The introduction of get_mounptoint ensures that only the mount_lock is needed to manipulate the mountpoint hashtable. d_set_mounted is modified to only set DCACHE_MOUNTED if it is not already set. This allows get_mountpoint to use the setting of DCACHE_MOUNTED to ensure adding a struct mountpoint for a dentry happens exactly once.

2016-07-28Merge branch 'salted-string-hash'Linus Torvalds1-13/+10
This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the _beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end. That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache setup, and do less at lookup runtime. It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended interface ends up working well for other cases too. Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a 'salt' pointer of NULL. * merge branch 'salted-string-hash': fs/dcache.c: Save one 32-bit multiply in dcache lookup vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash

2016-06-30vfs: merge .d_select_inode() into .d_real()Miklos Szeredi1-3/+0
The two methods essentially do the same: find the real dentry/inode belonging to an overlay dentry. The difference is in the usage: vfs_open() uses ->d_select_inode() and expects the function to perform copy-up if necessary based on the open flags argument. file_dentry() uses ->d_real() passing in the overlay dentry as well as the underlying inode. vfs_rename() uses ->d_select_inode() but passes zero flags. ->d_real() with a zero inode would have worked just as well here. This patch merges the functionality of ->d_select_inode() into ->d_real() by adding an 'open_flags' argument to the latter. [Al Viro] Make the signature of d_real() match that of ->d_real() again.

We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we did it late at lookup time. It turns out that we can simplify that lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early instead of late. A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism. Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the NULL pointer as a no-salt.

2016-06-10much milder d_walk() raceAl Viro1-6/+52
d_walk() relies upon the tree not getting rearranged under it without rename_lock being touched. And we do grab rename_lock around the places that change the tree topology. Unfortunately, branch reordering is just as bad from d_walk() POV and we have two places that do it without touching rename_lock - one in handling of cursors (for ramfs-style directories) and another in autofs. autofs one is a separate story; this commit deals with the cursors. * mark cursor dentries explicitly at allocation time * make __dentry_kill() leave ->d_child.next pointing to the next non-cursor sibling, making sure that it won't be moved around unnoticed before the parent is relocked on ascend-to-parent path in d_walk(). * make d_walk() skip cursors explicitly; strictly speaking it's not necessary (all callbacks we pass to d_walk() are no-ops on cursors), but it makes analysis easier.

2016-06-07fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() raceAl Viro1-2/+2
Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay. Unfortunately, in quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as the result. Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and covers all cases the old rule used to cover. Moreover, pipes and sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional in the first place.

2016-05-29unify dentry_iput() and dentry_unlink_inode()Al Viro1-35/+10
There is a lot of duplication between dentry_unlink_inode() and dentry_iput(). The only real difference is that dentry_unlink_inode() bumps ->d_seq and dentry_iput() doesn't. The argument of the latter is known to have been unhashed, so anybody who might've found it in RCU lookup would already be doomed to a ->d_seq mismatch. And we want to avoid pointless smp_rmb() there. This patch makes dentry_unlink_inode() bump ->d_seq only for hashed dentries. It's safe (d_delete() calls that sucker only if we are holding the only reference to dentry, so rehash is not going to happen) and it allows to use dentry_unlink_inode() in __dentry_kill() and get rid of dentry_iput(). The interesting question here is profiling; it *is* a hot path, and extra conditional jumps in there might or might not be painful. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin: "This series does several related things: - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use. (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case) - Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the above. - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms. Two 32-bit multiplies will do well enough. - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32. This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca95 ("Minimal fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()") The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for 32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified" multipliers. The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added. Those patches are last in the series. - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing. The patch in commit 0fed3ac866ea ("namei: Improve hash mixing if CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion. Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously faster and better. (My own invention, as there was noting suitable in the literature I could find. Comments welcome!) - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX(). This would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to. - Sort out partial_name_hash(). The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state contributes nothing to the result. And some callers do odd things: - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long) rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1. This would simplify users other than full_name_hash" Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1. (I learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.) On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from the H8/300 world" * 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux: h8300: Add <asm/hash.h> microblaze: Add <asm/hash.h> m68k: Add <asm/hash.h> <linux/hash.h>: Add support for architecture-specific functions fs/namei.c: Improve dcache hash function Eliminate bad hash multipliers from hash_32() and hash_64() Change hash_64() return value to 32 bits <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h>: Define hash_str() in terms of hashlen_string() fs/namei.c: Add hashlen_string() function Pull out string hash to <linux/stringhash.h>
2016-05-28fs/namei.c: Add hashlen_string() functionGeorge Spelvin1-2/+1
We'd like to make more use of the highly-optimized dcache hash functions throughout the kernel, rather than have every subsystem create its own, and a function that hashes basic null-terminated strings is required for that. (The name is to emphasize that it returns both hash and length.) It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name(). Other uses in the next patch. full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful: 1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to be consistent with hash_name(). 2) Handle zero-length inputs. If we want more callers, we don't want to make them worry about corner cases. Signed-off-by: George Spelvin <linux@sciencehorizons.net>

2016-05-02parallel lookups machinery, part 4 (and last)Al Viro1-20/+74
If we *do* run into an in-lookup match, we need to wait for it to cease being in-lookup. Fortunately, we do have unused space in in-lookup dentries - d_lru is never looked at until it stops being in-lookup. So we can stash a pointer to wait_queue_head from stack frame of the caller of ->lookup(). Some precautions are needed while waiting, but it's not that hard - we do hold a reference to dentry we are waiting for, so it can't go away. If it's found to be in-lookup the wait_queue_head is still alive and will remain so at least while ->d_lock is held. Moreover, the condition we are waiting for becomes true at the same point where everything on that wq gets woken up, so we can just add ourselves to the queue once. d_alloc_parallel() gets a pointer to wait_queue_head_t from its caller; lookup_slow() adjusted, d_add_ci() taught to use d_alloc_parallel() if the dentry passed to it happens to be in-lookup one (i.e. if it's been called from the parallel lookup). That's pretty much it - all that remains is to switch ->i_mutex to rwsem and have lookup_slow() take it shared. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2016-05-02parallel lookups machinery, part 3Al Viro1-0/+104
We will need to be able to check if there is an in-lookup dentry with matching parent/name. Right now it's impossible, but as soon as start locking directories shared such beasts will appear. Add a secondary hash for locating those. Hash chains go through the same space where d_alias will be once it's not in-lookup anymore. Search is done under the same bitlock we use for modifications - with the primary hash we can rely on d_rehash() into the wrong chain being the worst that could happen, but here the pointers are buggered once it's removed from the chain. On the other hand, the chains are not going to be long and normally we'll end up adding to the chain anyway. That allows us to avoid bothering with ->d_lock when doing the comparisons - everything is stable until removed from chain. New helper: d_alloc_parallel(). Right now it allocates, verifies that no hashed and in-lookup matches exist and adds to in-lookup hash. Returns ERR_PTR() for error, hashed match (in the unlikely case it's been found) or new dentry. In-lookup matches trigger BUG() for now; that will change in the next commit when we introduce waiting for ongoing lookup to finish. Note that in-lookup matches won't be possible until we actually go for shared locking. lookup_slow() switched to use of d_alloc_parallel(). Again, these commits are separated only for making it easier to review. All this machinery will start doing something useful only when we go for shared locking; it's just that the combination is too large for my taste. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2016-05-02parallel lookups machinery, part 2Al Viro1-2/+32
We'll need to verify that there's neither a hashed nor in-lookup dentry with desired parent/name before adding to in-lookup set. One possible solution would be to hold the parent's ->d_lock through both checks, but while the in-lookup set is relatively small at any time, dcache is not. And holding the parent's ->d_lock through something like __d_lookup_rcu() would suck too badly. So we leave the parent's ->d_lock alone, which means that we watch out for the following scenario: * we verify that there's no hashed match * existing in-lookup match gets hashed by another process * we verify that there's no in-lookup matches and decide that everything's fine. Solution: per-directory kinda-sorta seqlock, bumped around the times we hash something that used to be in-lookup or move (and hash) something in place of in-lookup. Then the above would turn into * read the counter * do dcache lookup * if no matches found, check for in-lookup matches * if there had been none of those either, check if the counter has changed; repeat if it has. The "kinda-sorta" part is due to the fact that we don't have much spare space in inode. There is a spare word (shared with i_bdev/i_cdev/i_pipe), so the counter part is not a problem, but spinlock is a different story. We could use the parent's ->d_lock, and it would be less painful in terms of contention, for __d_add() it would be rather inconvenient to grab; we could do that (using lock_parent()), but... Fortunately, we can get serialization on the counter itself, and it might be a good idea in general; we can use cmpxchg() in a loop to get from even to odd and smp_store_release() from odd to even. This commit adds the counter and updating logics; the readers will be added in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2016-05-02beginning of transition to parallel lookups - marking in-lookup dentriesAl Viro1-0/+13
marked as such when (would be) parallel lookup is about to pass them to actual ->lookup(); unmarked when * __d_add() is about to make it hashed, positive or not. * __d_move() (from d_splice_alias(), directly or via __d_unalias()) puts a preexisting dentry in its place * in caller of ->lookup() if it has escaped all of the above. Bug (WARN_ON, actually) if it reaches the final dput() or d_instantiate() while still marked such. As the result, we are guaranteed that for as long as the flag is set, dentry will * remain negative unhashed with positive refcount * never have its ->d_alias looked at * never have its ->d_lru looked at * never have its ->d_parent and ->d_name changed Right now we have at most one such for any given parent directory. With parallel lookups that restriction will weaken to * only exist when parent is locked shared * at most one with given (parent,name) pair (comparison of names is according to ->d_compare()) * only exist when there's no hashed dentry with the same (parent,name) Transition will take the next several commits; unfortunately, we'll only be able to switch to rwsem at the end of this series. The reason for not making it a single patch is to simplify review. New primitives: d_in_lookup() (a predicate checking if dentry is in the in-lookup state) and d_lookup_done() (tells the system that we are done with lookup and if it's still marked as in-lookup, it should cease to be such).

2016-03-26fs: add file_dentry()Miklos Szeredi1-1/+4
This series fixes bugs in nfs and ext4 due to 4bacc9c9234c ("overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay"). Regular files opened on overlayfs will result in the file being opened on the underlying filesystem, while f_path points to the overlayfs mount/dentry. This confuses filesystems which get the dentry from struct file and assume it's theirs. Add a new helper, file_dentry() [*], to get the filesystem's own dentry from the file. This checks file->f_path.dentry->d_flags against DCACHE_OP_REAL, and returns file->f_path.dentry if DCACHE_OP_REAL is not set (this is the common, non-overlayfs case). In the uncommon case it will call into overlayfs's ->d_real() to get the underlying dentry, matching file_inode(file). The reason we need to check against the inode is that if the file is copied up while being open, d_real() would return the upper dentry, while the open file comes from the lower dentry. [*] If possible, it's better simply to use file_inode() instead.
